An interview with Lying Adam Schiff isn't that important anyway.

Annnd then Democrat Senator Adam Schiff claims Jake Tapper's signal went our, causing Tapper to toss back to Anderson Cooper in the Lower 48 pic.twitter.com/dVnZivxRkV

God is sick of liars and was done listening to Adam Schiff.

YIKES: A few minutes prior to both of these, CNN's Jake Tapper is heard on a hot mic after a break saying "she knows I went to Big Ray's," which is a clothing chain in Anchorage. Or something else.

Either way, not great! pic.twitter.com/rgwheOU5D4

Poor Jake. He just can't seem to get it together. 

FWIW Tapper is angry most of the time.

Most Leftists are joyless.

Here with Sen. Schiff, who is under two separate criminal investigations.

To be fair, he should be in jail.

What a vainglorious twerp Jake is.

CNN is such a mess.

— Paul A. Szypula 🇺🇸 (@Bubblebathgirl) August 15, 2025

They’re all so pissed😂

Their Trump Derangement Syndrome is starting to have long lasting effects. 

@CNN @DNC just proved their minds are broken, especially @jaketapper for the stolen limelight 🤣

Jake is fine.
Just give him his blanket.

Jake needs a nap.

Such a whiny beta https://t.co/p3SDtmvtA9

At least Jake Tapper wasn't having a meltdown
al la Lawerence O'Donnell and screaming
"Stop the Hammering !!" 😅 https://t.co/qYUetUGB5h

Lawrence is certifiable. 

@jaketapper you put on a person who has done nothing but broke laws and tried to undermine this country with his Russian hoax b******* @SenAdamSchiff . You are more than pathetic https://t.co/GMowxkRz6z

Known liar Adam Schiff, that is. 

He can write a book about it.

— Jax Verza (@Orso_Dino) August 15, 2025

Oh, if he thinks he can make money out of it, he will.

Tapper is tapped out. We need much better, stronger journalists capable of accurately reporting the urgency of NOW.

— somervilleny (@somervilleny) August 15, 2025

True, it's time for some fresh talent, particularly those people who can be honest and who aren't bought out by the Democratic Party. 

And then immediately begins laundering Russian talking points in his interview with Schiff. Jake Tapper is a total stooge anti-American POS.

Tapper is a low talent fake and bum with the worst ratings, upset that another low rated bum, higher on the food chain at the low rated network, upstaged him! pic.twitter.com/fphk8SCXqn

Maybe Jake should calm down and try being honest, for once.
